Ruxton, Maybe CE just didn't want to kiss Yani Gellman but he would have been happy to kiss Peter Bergman. Adam certainly has a man-crush gone bad on Jack.

If one of the swappers has a disease that means: Sharon, Jack, Phyllis, Nick, Mary Jane, Billy, Chloe, Lily, and Cane all got i!

I always thought CE looked enough like PB that, if they wanted to, they could retcon Hope's friendship with Jack and say -- one time -- they did it behind the barn or something. So that Adam could turn out to be Jack's son.

But, with the Muhney recasting, that isn't going to work at all.

You wanna retcon Hope into a cheap slut? LOL! Or maybe it wasn't Hope's fault. She was blind ya know and Jack might have been doing a great impression of the Mustache.

If I were going to do a major retcon, I would have left Kay/Jill alone and gone for something HUGE -- making Nick into Jack's son. That leaves Victor with only the wretched Adam as a son and would deprive Victor of his life-long dream of leaving his empire to his son. A fitting punishment for Victor. Also, considering that the Quad is played out, making Jack & Nick into father and son (and Noah now being Jack's grandson) would create a fascinating new dynamic for them to play.

Nick was probably more Josh at that time. The thing about Josh is he isn't a BAD actor, he certainly isn't bad as who Nick is supposed to be he just has limited range. LML gave him very little in her whole tenure that forced him to step out of his element, MAB is doing the opposite and that's why he's showing inconsistency. I can't judge DG in the role of CANE objectively and w/o bias at this point. That has got to be one of the most confusing characters written on this show.

They should have just made Cane a charming con-man. DG would have rocked that.

Believe me, I know LML is a hack. My comment about the acting was just that -- there are certain performers (who I mentioned) that I like more back then than I do today.

Oh, Mark, I hated Clear Springs so much that I can't be clear-headed about it. :D

Everyone watching the Tonys now? NPH is so hot. I wish Billy Abbott's character was more like Barney Stinson, a fun & unapologetic womanizer. They really ruined Billy when they saddled him with the kid & wife.

Most people felt like you about Clear Springs. I kind of liked that one-week change of pace, although obviously when I saw how little "story impact" it had -- or was meant to have -- I became less impressed. The only lasting thing to come out of it is Kay-Amber's friendship.

I love it when shows spend money on looking good. I like fresh flowers in the Newman living room, extras at Jimmy's, stylish clothes on Kay, etc. I just can't stand seeing money wasted on stuff like Clear Spring and the Paris shoot, especially when we're losing icons like MTS. I have an aversion to sweeps events like Clear Springs or AMC's tornado.

I think the Paris shoot was a cheapie, bankrolled by the French station that carries the program. I definitely think it was not a typical full-priced location shoot, or they wouldn't have done it.
